here we go again

it wasn't a COUNTRY. but please don't let undisputed facts get in your way.

of course it doesn't matter to do. historical facts have no meaning to the low information crowd.

And who was pointing the guns when they left?

Hint: It wasn't Israel.

Where are your protests of the million Jews driven out of their lands (Arab World) at gunpoint during the same period?

Not to mention that very few Palestinians were driven out by Jews. The attacking Arab armies welcomed them into their countries, saying they would "return the land when the Zionists are driven into the sea". Instead, the Arabs got their butts whooped thrice, and chose to refuse citizenship to the Palestinians they took in.

And archaeological and DNA evidence proves that Israel is the Jewish homeland. Palestinians, as Arab people, only have Saudi Arabia as an ancestral homeland.

Your argument fails on all points.

If he has any, it comes from Al-Jazeera or Electronic Intifada, most likely.

Yes, SOME were kicked out forcefully. But the majority was either: welcomed in by Arab countries, who promised to wipe out Israel and return them; left of their own free will; or sold land to Jews and then left.
